i mean, it's just that you've done it with short-fic rather than epics like say, aja & `love under will'. i can definitely see how it'd get tedious, almost, unless you were spending time expanding on just one story, to keep having to come up with new angles. hmmm. i guess that's the problem with knowing what you do and don't have in you to say. personally, i have only the vaguest idea of what i have in me to say, so i can just blithely go on writing or not writing as the muse strikes me -.-
I've never read Aja's 'Love Under Will' so I can't comment on her work. It's nothing personal. I happened to really enjoy 'Atrophy' but I'm just not interested in works that have no end in sight. If i want an epic then I'll buy a book, which is also why I have no interest in writing anything that goes on forever either. Why use 15 words when three will do, and why spend ten chapters talking about one thing happening? I don't need lots of flowerly language to interest me. i simply prefer other methods of delivery. With regards to running out of things to say, I doubt that that day will ever come for me, but I may simply may not have anything else to say regarding these characters. Who knows? Certainly not me, I just take it as it comes.
